Published: April 14, 2023, 5 a.m.

Andi and Lise discuss and deeply appreciate multiple award-winning spec fic writer Nicola Griffith\u2019s novel Spear (current Nebula finalist!)\u2014a queer Arthurian story that will bring you right into the era from a perspective you didn\u2019t know you absolutely needed. If, like them, you grew up on Arthurian/Camelot stories, Spear is like coming home to the people you wanted and needed to see in those tales.\xa0

Shout-outs: Lise started watching the Netflix series Lockwood and Co., about teen ghosthunters/ghost battlers in a Britain overrun by spirits that can kill with a touch. Adapted from the first two books in the Lockwood and Co. series by Jonathan Stroud. Andi shouts-out the ol\u2019 skool show Forensic Files which she\u2019s watching on Hulu. The episodes are about 22 minutes long without commercials, and she\u2019s ended up learning a lot and making it a family affair.\xa0
